Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of English Speech-Craft This little book was not written to win prize or praise; but it is put forth as one small trial, weak though it may be, towards the upholding of our own strong old Anglo Saxon speech, and the ready teaching of it to purely English minds by their own tongue.

Download or read book The Story of English Speech Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Charles Noble and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of English Speech, Vol. 1 His book is an attempt to put into a small volume the material wanted for my Freshman English work in the History of the Language. What has been done in this field so well by Lounsbury, Emerson, Bradley, Sweet and others, is appre ciated, and there is no thought, particularly, of improving upon their work. What I wanted was something like their books, but briefer, combined with an outline of the more important forms of the West Saxon and the Middle English grammar, and a number of short selections which should show the development of the language, like Cor son's handbook, but much less extended. I have tried also, to emphasize as well as I could, the close relation be tween language development, literary conditions, and social and political movements. This is, to me, far the most interesting phase of the subject, and the one that is most likely to awaken a vital interest in the student and correlate the work in language with other studies. To acknowledge my indebtedness to other writers would be simply to name, in addition to those already referred to, every thing on the general subject upon which I have been able to lay hands. To Professor Ansley, of the State University of Iowa, Professor Robinson, of Harvard Uni versity, and Dr. Craigie, of the New English Diction ary, Oxford, I am indebted for kindly reading and criti cising the manuscript at different stages of its growth. Probably, in spite of the care that has been taken, many mistakes will appear; and if any, outside of my classes, read the book I shall be very grateful for their criticisms.

Download or read book Good Speech written by Walter Ripman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Good Speech: An Introduction to English Phonetics The recent report of Sir Henry Newbolt's Committee on "The Teaching of English in England" contains, among much that is of pressing importance, an earnest plea for the cultivation of good speech, and it insists on the value of phonetics for attaining this end. It is satisfactory to know that this report has had an extensive sale; and among its readers there are probably many who have little idea of what "phonetics" means and how it can help them. They may be a little frightened at the technicalities with which many treatises on phonetics abound, and the script usually employed may seem to them a more formidable difficulty than it really is. A simple presentment of the principal features of our spoken language, based mainly on standard speech, but paying some attention to dialect sounds, will probably be welcome to many teachers and perhaps even to a wider public. The attempt has been made in the following pages to provide a popular introduction to what will prove an interesting field of study in which many more workers are needed. To speak clearly and well is a social duty; and it is more particularly the duty of the teacher. This book, from its very nature, can do no more than set the student on the right path; it is in no sense exhaustive.

This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Words and Their Ways in English Speech The practical man, who rides in electric cars, talks by the long-distance telephone, and dictates his letters to a stenographer, seldom has time to think that he is the heir of all the ages. Yet, however busy he may be, there are moments when the amazing phenomenon of articulate speech comes home to him as a kind of commonplace miracle. To answer some of the questions that occur to one at such moments is the main purpose of this book. Chapters XIII and XIV are an essential part of the treatment, but have been so adjusted that the reader who finds them abstruse may skip them without scruple.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of English Speech These notes were mostly made some time ago, and for a very different use but, thinking they may prove suggestive to the reader, I have collected them into this little volume, and publish them, even at the risk of being regarded another such snapper-up of unconsidered trifles as Autolycus proclaims himself in the Winter's Tale of Shakespeare. They are accompanied by so much of comment and theory as the subject in hand seems to call for to bring into clear view its difficulties, but with no attempt to treat any one topic in an exhaustive manner. The book is not designed for a text-book, nor is it intended to supplement text-books. The object of its publica tion will be fully accomplished if it encourages any reader to study our language critically in its forms and elements, if it suggests methods of investigation likely to prove useful in solving the many problems peculiar to English, if it exhibits anything of the fresh ness, the life, and the vigor of a still growing idiom.
